Two wanted over attempted murder of PSNI officer granted leave to seek judicial review

Summary

Two men sought by Northern Irish authorities in connection with the attempted murder of a PSNI officer have been granted leave to pursue judicial review at the High Court. The applicants, arrested in County Donegal in 2015, allege that An Garda Síochána failed to provide custody records, statements, and details of samples taken during their detention at Letterkenny and Milford stations. They contend the withheld information is material to defending extradition proceedings. Ms Justice Aileen Donnelly agreed to hear the applications and scheduled a motion returnable for October 9th. The men, who face charges including possession of explosives with intent to endanger life, remain on continuing bail. Extradition proceedings have been adjourned pending the judicial review hearing.
